Could you please attach xend.log when the failure occurs so that we can see the parameters passed to domUloader?

OK, I repeated the installation. DomU disk layout is still this: /dev/xvda1 /boot ext2 /dev/xvda2 swap swap /dev/xvda3 / ext4 /dev/xvda5 /tmp ext4 /dev/xvda6 /var/log ext4 Grub is installed to xvda1 (not to xvda), which is an active/bootable partition. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I think we should have been using pygrub all along with os11.2 and I am going to go ahead and make that change in vm-install.

Thank you! And these issues shold be addressed, too: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=561601 -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
